Publisher's Synopsis
When I Found Out I Had Cancer: Reflections on Living With an Incurable Illness is a collection of personal essays by Susan Sandler, who chronicles her journey with brain cancer and offers insight to both her experience living with grade IV glioblastoma, as well as how she has learned to cope and even thrive since her diagnosis. A slim book brimming with quiet courage, vulnerability and hope, Sandler generously offers up her story with the intention of helping others feel less alone. "I am not sharing my story because I think I have some answer or path that helped me work through how painful this situation is," she writes. "I don't have an answer. But I do hope there is something in my story that some people might find relevant or helpful to their own situations." ALL PROCEEDS FROM BOOK SALES WILL GO TO THE UCSF BRAIN TUMOR CENTER, WHICH HAS OVERSEEN SUSAN'S TREATMENT AND CARE.
